Bloom Favorite- Bridal Shower Ideas!




















There are so many creative ideas out there now for bridal showers! Afternoon Tea, Something Blue, color themes, honeymoon showers. Think of all the great print pieces that could be added to any shower to jazz it up and pull the theme together. Place cards, gift tags, favor tags, menus, invitations, food cards, the list goes on and on! I get excited everytime I see such beautiful images of these creative showers and the thoughts flood as to how print could be incorporated in to the party atmosphere. Can you see it? Share your ideas for Bridal Showers, or even cool things you've seen done before!

Owl Baby Announcements

A client asked for baby announcements with a retro feel owl, using brown and green. I created the vector owl and kept the design simple. They were printed on epson white matte and we used white envelopes. I think they turned out pretty cute. Feedback welcome!





















































I printed another sample using fictitious names to protect the client privacy but so the details can be seen in the images.

Afternoon Tea Bridal Shower Invitations











A client of mine is a friend of Kim, a wedding client whom I have mentioned before. She is throwing a Bridal Shower for Kim and wanted the invitations to match Kim's wedding package. We created these invitations with a little of the filigree design from Kim's wedding invites and the same color scheme. We printed them on white matte paper and used Leaf colored envelopes to match.
Let me know what you think!

Bloom Favorite- Birthday Parties

(Click on image to enlarge)

When I was searching around for some Turtle Party Inspiration, I came across so many creative and exciting birthday party themes. It made me want to plan Claire's 1st birthday today! However, I must restrain myself, being as we still have 9 months until that party rolls around. But how cute are these ideas! The color palettes are all so vibrant, the details are fabulous, and the kids -- absolutely adorable. Cupcakes are in right now with cupcake toppers galore. Ribbons, streamers, favors. Its amazing what talented and creative people can do when throwing such beautiful parties for their kids. Think of all the print related items you we could create together for your child's next party!

Grady's 1st Birthday!

Our neighbors and friends asked me to create a Turtle themed 1st Birthday Party Invitation for them. Their son Grady has often been seen wearing a shirt that has a graphic turtle on it that says Speedy. I used this turtle for inspiration, as well as a simple, bright, layout and color scheme.

Bridal Shower/Bachelorette Party Invitations

This is my first finished project since having been on maternity leave. This client wanted two invitations that matched so that she could send the bridal shower invitation to all of her guests and then a bachelorette party invitation in the same envelope to some of the guests. Her keywords were blue and girly. Let me know what you think, I'm pretty happy with how they turned out.

Back to work...


We had a beautiful little girl born on December 14th and since then I've been devoted to being MOM. I still am devoted to being Mom, but after a few requests for cards and invitations, I'm back working -- at least part time and upon request. I hope to share these upcoming and current projects with you soon.
Should you be interested in working with Bloom for your next event, please send me an email!
